Paint Schemes/Rim Chops

They still have the front window molding available and reasonably priced. They do not have the rear molding available anymore and no Buick dealership in the US has one in stock. If you have an extra, I would love to take it off your hands.

If the glass does not need to be removed, I will keep it in. I will need to remove all the trim pieces and it's a little comforting knowing they still have clips.

How did you get the weatherstrip from the C Pillar to the trunk out?

Most of the trim clips are still available from the dealer, rocker molding, the rubber along the edge of the hood, and I got assorted others also.

Do you have pn for these items as well?

jesus shit cake!!!!

I did this on my work computer and it looked okay....then I come home to see it on my mac and it looks like shit....


....sorry eric.

There is a bolt that sticks out under the trunk lid under the plastic piece, it just pulls off of that bolt and is glued into the grove between the sail panel and the quarter panel. I can try and get some pics this weekend.

I'm still trying to get this together, I haven't forgotten you just been a busy few days. I got a couple of pictures and am working on part numbers, I'll get them posted soon.

Hey if its ok with ewolfe i would like to see im someone could photoshop his car diamond white for me? i want to see what rims like his would look on a riviera like mine. If somebody does it just keep everything the same except the paint. any help is appreciated.

It would be easier to just photoshop the rims on your car.

Have a good pic you can post?

yeah here are a couple, tell me if they arent good enough.

yep, on both....I'm out of here though, so it will have to be tomorrow.

Texas, if your looking for new rims, Eric is selling the above at a great price and they're really nice looking too....

yeah but my city is so rough i think i will regret getting such large rims or lowering my car.

Those do look nice, Thanks for doing that...Thats the look that Im going for.
Eric...Are you selling those rims because of the weight? or some other reason?

It was the weight. The rims I have now are a little lighter. If I wasn't into modifying mine so much, I would have stayed with the first set. They drove excellent and they looked great on the car. I had several dissapointed family and friends when I went with my current rims.

what size are you current rims, because i think i remember saying your old rims were 20"

Both are 20"

man, im in between a rock and a hard place on getting new rims. I want to rims but i cant decide, but i also dont want rims because that money could go towards performance parts.

Rims could be considered a performance part as long as they are not too heavy....with 245 or even 255 tires handling is greatly improved over stock....the risk you run, as in any mod, is over doing it before other mods are added to reduce the stress of the original mod.....

idk wat would you suggest i do to a stock car if i dont get rims?
